Two Orioles sing in the green willows, and a row of egrets ascends to the sky. The window contains the snow of Qianqiu in the Xiling Mountains, and the door is docked with ships thousands of miles away from Dongwu. Du Fu's "Queju" has only twenty-eight characters in total, but the scenery it describes is very distinctive. The poet embodies subjective feelings in the objective scenery, embodies the real things in his heart, the scenes blend together, and the artistic conception is profound. In particular, the poet cleverly uses numbers in the poem, such as the four words "two", "one", "thousand" and "ten thousand". The combination of virtual and real, as well as time and space, enhances the artistic expression of the poem. The first sentence of this poem is "Two orioles singing in the green willows." Orioles are chirping on the willow branches, and the poet specifies "two", indicating that the birds' calls are not chirping, but a chorus of counter calls, cheerful but not noisy, lively but not noisy. The second sentence is "A line of egrets ascending to the blue sky." The white noble egret flies towards the blue sky. From the "line", it can be seen that the birds are arranged in an orderly manner and gradually go away, instead of suddenly flying away and going their separate ways. The use of the word "up" further shows that the egret is flying high and flying high. Wings spread upward. The third sentence is "The window contains Qianqiu snow of Xiling". The word "Qianqiu" is a virtual reference. Out of the poet's imagination, it gives the static scenery of "snow" a sense of vicissitudes. The snow that has not melted for thousands of years seems to be telling something and witnessing something. Although the scenery in the "window" is small, you can feel the depth of time. The fourth sentence is "A ship thousands of miles away from Dongwu is parked at the door." The boat is moored at the pier in front of the door. It is also a static object, but because of its "thousands of miles" journey, it makes people feel that the world is vast, as if it is out of reach with wings. The scenery outside the "door" is not big, but you can feel the vastness of the space. The above four sentences describe the scenery visible around the Huanhuaxi Thatched Cottage where the poet lived at that time. The "two" and "one line" in the first two sentences actually refer to "orioles" and "egrets", "green willows" and "blue sky", facing each other in pairs, four kinds of scenery, vivid and colorful, depicting a brightly colored, The fresh and moving pictures show the poet's leisurely mood at this time. In the last two sentences, "Qianqiu" and "Wanli" are fictitious references, both coming from the poet's imagination, and the artistic conception of the poem is therefore remote and broad, which also shows the poet's broad mind.
